Step Into Something Different

The Dark Market is where curious minds, independent makers and lovers of the beautifully unusual come together. Whether you are hunting for a one-of-a-kind gift, a new piece of dark art or simply an afternoon with a little more atmosphere, our events are made for exploring at your own pace.

What You Will Find

Every market brings a fresh mix of talented traders from across the alternative creative community. Expect handmade jewellery, original artwork, curiosities, gothic homewares, distinctive clothing, oddities and small-batch treasures you will not find on the high street.

• Independent artists with work worth lingering over
• Makers creating thoughtful, handmade pieces
• Unusual gifts for the hard-to-buy-for people in your life
• Dark décor, curios and conversation starters

Come Curious

There is no right way to experience The Dark Market. Arrive with a wish list, follow whatever catches your eye, chat with the people behind the stalls and leave room for the unexpected. Our markets are welcoming spaces for seasoned alternative souls and first-time visitors alike.

Expect the unexpected, support independent creativity and take home a story.
